Prince Harry’s 2-word reaction after spotting young fan with fiery-red hair

Published by Daniella Wilson

Prince Harry had the sweetest reaction when he spotted a fellow redhead during his visit to Australia with Meghan Markle this week.  The Duke of Sussex, 41, gave the young fan a fist bump when he spotted his bright red locks in a crowd at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne – the first stop in their four-day tour Down Under.  Harry, who is known for his famous red hair, exclaimed: “Yes! Gingers rule!” after spotting the royal fan, who was wearing a black T-shirt and standing with crowds in the hospital foyer.  It was one of several heartwarming interactions with well-wishers, with Meghan telling people to “call me Meg” as they arrived, while Harry said they could address them “however you like”.  Harry and Meghan meet crowds at children’s hospital Harry’s parents, the King and Diana, Princess of Wales, visited the Royal Children’s Hospital in 1985, meeting patients while on a visit to the state of Victoria. The Sussexes landed in Australia on Tuesday on a commercial flight for a packed itinerary including stops …

Prince Harry’s ‘unprincely’ rule he abandoned after Meghan Markle marriage

Prince Harry’s ‘unprincely’ rule he abandoned after Meghan Markle marriage

Published by Daniella Wilson

Almost eight years on from their royal wedding, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have cemented their place as one of the most stylish members of the royal family, revered worldwide for their fashion influence. Casting our eye back to 2015, one year before they secretly met in London, the Duke of Sussex had a very different approach to fashion. He even went so far as to describe himself as “unprincely”, filling his wardrobe with a combination of comfortable styles from a high street “discount store” and hand-me-downs from King Charles. “As a rule I didn’t think about clothing. I didn’t fundamentally believe in fashion, and I couldn’t understand why anybody would. I often got mocked on social media for my mismatched outfits, my ratty shoes.  “Writers would flag a photo of me and wonder why my trousers were so long, my shirts so crumpled. (They didn’t dream that I’d dried them on the radiator.) Not very princely, they’d say,” he penned in his 2022 autobiography, Spare. Recognising that his family were more concerned with their …

A Complete List of Meghan and Harry’s Creative Projects, From Documentaries to Unrealized Podcasts

Published by Sam Flores

In recent years, Meghan and Harry have admitted that they didn’t have a solid plan for how they would rebuild their careers after leaving the service of the crown in early 2020, just months before they signed their Netflix deal. Either way, it was clear that Hollywood was interested in giving them a shot, and their company Archewell Productions was born. They also signed an exclusive podcasting deal with Spotify, but that ended in 2023 after just 13 episodes had aired. It took a few years before they released any projects, but their first show on the streamer, Harry & Meghan, broke a documentary-debut record on the platform when it premiered in December 2022. Telling the story of their private meeting, royal wedding, and high-profile exit from the UK, the docuseries made headline news for weeks and provoked much upset among Harry’s extended family. Harry & Meghan and With Love, Meghan represent Archewell Productions’ biggest splashes in Hollywood by far, but the company has also had its hands in an array of other documentaries, the …

Queen Elizabeth Reportedly Refused to Answer Prince Harry’s Phone Calls Without a Witness Present

Queen Elizabeth Reportedly Refused to Answer Prince Harry’s Phone Calls Without a Witness Present

Published by Sam Flores

Following his farewell to the royal family and move to the United States, Prince Harry has had a fraught relationship with his relatives. In 2021, the Duke of Sussex and Meghan Markle gave a bombshell interview to Oprah Winfrey that suggested the Windsors had been racist. At the time, Queen Elizabeth II, who died in 2022, responded with a diplomatic official statement: “The issues raised, especially the racial ones, are troubling. Although some memories may vary, they will be taken very seriously.” Now, in his new book Queen Elizabeth II: A Personal History, historian Hugo Vickers says the sovereign was “deeply hurt by her grandson’s attacks.” After that interview, the queen became very “distrustful of Harry,” Vickers claims, so much so that she reportedly “refused to answer his phone calls unless there was a witness who could record what was said.” Per Vickers, whenever Prince Harry called her, “the queen would ask her lady-in-waiting to be with her.” When she responded, Queen Elizabeth II reportedly limited herself to “monosyllabic conversations made up only of ‘yes’ …

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s explosive reaction to fresh criticism about their dealings with the Royal Family risks damaging an already fragile relationship even further, an expert has claimed. The backlash was sparked by bombshell claims in a new royal book by Tom Bower, including the allegation that Queen Camilla once accused Meghan of “brainwashing” her now husband. According to royal expert Ingrid Seward, in light of Harry’s recent attempts to build bridges with his family, including hopes that the King will play a pivotal role in next year’s Invictus Games, responding to criticisms won’t help matters. She said: “While I don’t think Camilla will care very much, fuelling the fire isn’t going to help his relationship with his father, is it?” Speaking to New! Magazine, Ms Seward added: “Either it is true, or it’s so preposterous it doesn’t bear thinking about. But either way, the royal family will keep quiet and not get involved, while Harry will remain furious. She also added that Camilla and Harry never shared a strong bond. Ms Seward added: …

Prince Harry’s fears that Prince William could strip Archie and Lilibet of their titles revealed

Prince Harry’s fears that Prince William could strip Archie and Lilibet of their titles revealed

Published by Daniella Wilson

Prince Harry feared that his brother Prince William could show “no mercy” towards his family after Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was stripped of his titles, a royal author has claimed.  In his new book, Betrayal: Power, Deceit And The Fight For The Future Of The Royal Family, Tom Bower explores the “split between the Houses of Sussex and Windsor”. Betrayal, which is published on 26 March, investigates whether the “broken bonds” between Prince William and Kate, and Harry and Meghan, can ever be repaired. A spokesperson for the Sussexes has denied the claims in the book, criticising the author for his “fixation” on the couple.  In one passage, the royal biographer describes Prince Harry’s anticipated reaction in the US to news that Andrew had been stripped of his titles on 30 October – and the realisation it meant his own royal status was “no longer invincible”.  It meant anything was possible in the future, including putting the titles of Harry’s children at risk. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced that Archie, six, and Lilibet, four, would use …

Will King Charles attend Prince Harry’s Invictus Games? Royal expert weighs in

Will King Charles attend Prince Harry’s Invictus Games? Royal expert weighs in

Published by Daniella Wilson

The Invictus Games are set to head to Birmingham next year, but is King Charles likely to join Prince Harry when the Duke of Sussex returns to the UK? On this week’s edition of A Right Royal Podcast, the Sun’s political editor, Matt Wilkinson, shared how it was unlikely that the monarch would be joining his son, while Queen Camilla and Prince William certainly wouldn’t be in attendance. “I think Invictus is a big event for Harry,” Matt explained. “I mean, I think it was between Washington DC or Birmingham, they were the two candidate cities for Invictus. And it’s not like the Olympics where you have loads of members voting. “I think there was only one decision. It was going to Birmingham and Harry wanted to bring his whole family down here. He wants to sit there with the royal family, in the stands, but that’s very optimistic.” He added: “Who knows what could happen next week? If you want an answer on that, looking at my crystal ball, I don’t think the King …

Prince Harry’s first girlfriend warned he could “turn out just like” his uncle, the former Duke of York, the High Court has heard during the duke’s privacy trial against a newspaper publisher. The claim emerged in evidence given by journalist Barbara Jones, who told the court she visited Harry’s then girlfriend Chelsy Davy in Cape Town in 2004 while working as the Africa correspondent for The Mail on Sunday. Jones said Davy confirmed she was in a relationship with Prince Harry during that meeting. The court heard that Jones returned three months later with a source, Joe Osman, who claimed he knew Davy’s brother because he sold him cannabis. Jones said she waited in her car outside the property in the Newlands suburb of Cape Town while Osman spent around 20 minutes inside, The Times reported. Afterwards, she recorded his account of what he said was a conversation with Davy. According to Jones, Osman claimed Davy had said she advised Harry that pursuing a career as an army officer was “pointless” and warned he would …

How Kate Middleton and Prince Harry’s relationship has drastically deteriorated over the years

How Kate Middleton and Prince Harry’s relationship has drastically deteriorated over the years

Published by Daniella Wilson

As someone who has been covering the British royal family for over a decade, it’s hard not to notice the sad shift in the relationship between the Princess of Wales and Prince Harry. From the outside, it seemed like a warm, brotherly-sisterly bond, full of laughter and shared smiles. Along with Prince William, the two were a close-knit royal trio, but now, more than just thousands of miles separate them. In fact, Russell Myers claims in his book William & Catherine: The Intimate Inside Story that Catherine was less interested than William in having Harry remain a working member of the royal family. The Duke of Sussex and his wife, Meghan Markle, ultimately stepped back from their royal roles in 2020. “As an ‘outsider’, Catherine had witnessed the deterioration of William and Harry’s relationship. She had seen Harry and Meghan become ever more bitter at having to follow the rules of a hierarchical and hereditary monarchy, until they felt as if they could follow them no longer,” Russell writes.  “Sources suggest Catherine had less interest than …
